It was the late summer of 1986. In our small village with less than 200 people, two girls in their twenties committed suicide by drinking pesticides in ten days.
The first girl to commit suicide by drinking "Leguo" is Xiaowen. She is twenty-one years old, tall and handsome, but she is a little introverted. Just because my mother said a few words to her, she drank the pesticides in anger. Because the repetitiveness of Leguo is strong, the young and beautiful Xiaowen is still damaged after nearly a week of rescue.
The second person who died of drinking pesticides was Xiaomei. Xiaomei is the daughter of the third aunt next door. She has a medium-sized figure and is slightly fat. She not only has a good face, but also speaks eloquently and works neatly. Xiaomei has been opening a hotel in the county town with her cousin all year round. She has already made a marriage, and the wedding date is on the eighth day of the ninth lunar month.
Just a few days after Xiaowen committed suicide, Xiaomei came home. She had an argument with her sister-in-law because of a trivial matter. The two of them refused to give in to each other and the argument was hard to resolve. Xiaomei, who had never suffered any grievance, drank pesticides on the spot and died before she could be sent to the hospital.
Within ten days, two beautiful girls in the village committed suicide by drinking pesticides. While lamenting and regretting, the villagers felt very strange. Especially after listening to some old people's words, it added a bit of horror.
The old people said: I don’t know which immortal the village has rushed to, and I just pick handsome girls and take their lives. Those who have girls at home should pay attention! Also, the dead young women are all romantic hookers. Everyone must be careful not to let them get entangled!
It turns out that this is true. Within a month, bad news came from Xiaomei's in-laws' house - Xiaomei's fiancé was missing for many days because of sadness and sadness, and was hanged in the reeds by the river. This seems to verify the old people's words, and everyone is even more uneasy.
Villagers must be accompanied by people during the day and during the day. When it gets dark, the villagers will close their doors and dare not go out, and even have to accompany them to the toilet.
One night, I was drying clothes in the corridor in the yard. The electric baton in the room emitted a dazzling light, illuminating my shadow. I was so scared that I shouted at the top of my lungs: Who? ! My husband said that I was so scared that I was so scared that I was so angry that I was so angry that I was full of soldiers.
As time goes by, the atmosphere of panic seems to weaken a little. But something that happened this winter made everyone feel uneasy and frightened.
On a dark and windy night, production team leader Zhang Laixi felt that one hand was placed on his left shoulder after drinking at Xiaomei's house. Zhang Laixi was puzzled by the big wolf dog from Xiaomei's family, so she turned her head and scolded her. Unexpectedly, the moment he turned his head, his right shoulder was slapped hard again. He hurriedly searched around and found nothing.
The next day, Zhang Laixi fell ill. Some people say that Zhang Laixi encountered a ghost, and that ghost was Xiaomei. As expected, Zhang Laixi's illness is getting worse and worse, and it doesn't work to ask the gods for medical treatment.
Some people say that it was Xiaomei who wanted to ask Zhang Laixi for her life and entangled him. Half a year later, Zhang Laixi died. I heard from his family that Zhang Laixi was suffering from liver cancer . He was afraid that he would be sad after he knew it, so he only told him that he was frightened. In fact, what happened that night was just an illusion caused by Zhang Laixi's nervousness. Until then, the villagers' hearts were slightly calmer.
In the spring of the following year, there was another news about Xiaomei's haunted in the village, and this time it was even more rumored.
Every spring, Xiaomei's father hatched the chicks with Wang Xin, and the eggs were on the kang, and the eggs had to be moved on time during the day and night.
It is said that one night, just as Wang Xin was squatting on the kang to move the eggs, he saw one hand moving the eggs at the other end. Wang Xin was frightened. He was absent-minded for several days, and later he hung himself on a crooked locust tree outside the village.
Wang Xin's death seems to further confirm what the old man said: the dead young woman is a romantic ghost and a jealous ghost. The horrifying atmosphere enveloped the village again.
Several elderly people in the village found Xiaomei's parents and asked them to move Xiaomei's grave to her fiancé and bury her with her fiancé. They could no longer stay here, and the village was in turmoil.
Xiaomei's parents had no choice but to contact the unmarried son-in-law's parents and buried their daughter and unmarried son-in-law together.
At this point, Xiaomei has no longer harmed people in the village. Everyone tacitly stopped mentioning Xiaomei’s affairs. The terrifying clouds gradually faded and the villagers returned to their peaceful lives.
Later I heard Wang Xin's wife say it. The cause of Wang Xin's death was not the rumored by the villagers, but their baby son found out that jaundice hepatitis at that time. The doctor said that his son's illness was difficult to cure, and his son was Wang Xin's lifeblood. Wang Xin suddenly lost confidence in life and was in pain, but she ended up looking for a short-term view.
The strange things that happened in the village have made the villagers really nervous and terrified for a while, but in the final analysis, they are all caused by superstition.
